Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a diploid red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) of the "Mattenklee" type. The crop is distinguished by stable productivity and the ability to persist in the field for up to 3–4 years, forming a dense sward.

The plant possesses marked resistance to Sclerotinia, anthracnose, and stem nematode (Ditylenchus dipsaci). The main purpose of the variety is creating a forage base in the form of silage, hay, or grazing; it is often used as a component in mixtures with forage grasses.
